Breadcrumbs is a whole new way to think about maps. Think of it as a map with a memory or a location aware note pad.
For instance, say you are walking down the street and pass a cool bar you want to remember. Normally you'd make a mental note and never really think about it again. With breadcrumbs, you open the app, drop a pin, then add any amount of information you want! Give it a name & description. Add a phone number. Take a picture of the inside or the menu! Write a note with their specials.
Say you pass a furniture store with a couch that would look great in your living room. Drop a pin, take a picture of the couch, write down the store's hours, phone number, and the price. Then when you're home, you can really decide if its right for you, knowing you have all the information to find it again. The possibilities are endless.
Breadcrumb Trail comes with many categories to help organize your breadcrumbs. You can customize or add as many categories you want. Choose from over 65 pin images in 10 different colors. That's over 650 different pins!
Each breadcrumb has the option to add any number of 8 different attributes. Name, Description, Phone numbers, Notes, Addresses, URLs, Pictures, and Ratings. Each attribute is formatted differently and knows its function. Tap the phone number and you are asked to call. tap the address and you can email or open a map. Tap a URL and the built in browser loads the page. And any photo you take with breadcrumbs can also save to your phone's photo library. You can even sync breadcrumb info with your phone contact list. Then as you update a breadcrumb, the contact is updated as well, allowing you to sync that data to your address book on your computer.
